Recently, the domestic remodeling market is increased in scale. This study is to develop the sanitary piping system which improves quality of life and facility performance when the aged public housing is remodeled. Above all, we found out three standard floor plans in bathrooms of the public housing. And then, the plan and section types of the sanitary piping system were developed for the on-floor piping, a construction cost of each section types was estimated to review the economical fact. Also, the field mock-up test was performed in the type of the pipe shaft with on-floor pit. In result, the developed sanitary piping system was available for the remodeling public housing without a great facility cost. Additionally, the sanitary pipe was replaced easily through the shaft and on-floor fit. And a noise was reduced to a lower unit when the water flowed down.

This study presents a method of quality category classification by safety, maturity, complexity, and what types and extent of controls and verifications are applied to specific products and services during the various stages of a nuclear facility life cycle. All products, services and processes have various controls and verifications built in to ensure they perform their functions satisfactorily. The highest grade should require the most stringent application of the quality assurance requirements ; while, the lowest grade should require the least stringent. When products or services are modified, the assigned grade of quality assurance requirements could become more stringent or less stringent depending on the significance in nuclear safety. Applying QA program always costs money, and they should be applied and focused to the extent where necessary and not applied or applied to a lesser degree for less important activities. An efficient QA program should be developed to satisfy the necessary requirements and to ensure the required confidence in quality, but without unnecessary stipulations. Not all the requirements of QA standard must be applied identically to all products and services which are to be provided.

It is necessary to evaluate HMI inaspects of human factors in the design stage of MMIS(man machine interface system) and feedback the result of evaluation because operators performance is mainly influenced by the HMI. Therefore, the MMIS design should be reflected the operators psychological, behavioral and physiological characteristics in the interaction with human machine interface(HMI) in order to improve the safety and availability of the MMIS of a nuclear power plant(NPP) by reduction of human error. The development of human factors experimental evaluation techniques and integrated test facility(ITF) for the human factors evaluation become an important research field to resolve hi,am factors issues on the design of an advanced control room(ACR). We developed am ITF, which is aimed to experiment with the design of the ACR and the human machine interaction as it relates to the control of NPP. This paper presents the development of an ITF that consists of three rooms such as main test room(MTR), supporting test room(STR) and experiment control room(ECR). And, the ITF has a various facilities such as a human machine simulator(HMS), experimental measurement systems and data analysis and experiment evaluation supporting system(DAEXESS). The HMS consists of full-scope simulation model of Korean standard NPP and advanced HMI based on visual display nits (VDUS) such as touch color CRT, large scale display panel(LSDP), flat panel display unit and so on.

The neutron radiography reactor (NRAD) is a 250 kW Mark-II Training, Research, Isotopes, General Atomics (TRIGA) reactor at Idaho National Laboratory, Idaho Falls, ID, USA. The East Radiography Station (ERS) is one of two neutron beams at the NRAD used for neutron radiography, which sits beneath a large hot cell and is primarily used for neutron radiography of highly radioactive objects. Additional fuel elements were added to the NRAD core in 2013 to increase the excess reactivity of the reactor, and may have changed some characteristics of the neutron beamline. This report discusses characterization of the neutron beamline following the addition of fuel to the NRAD. This work includes determination of the facility category according to the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards, and also uses an array of gold foils to determine the neutron beam flux and evaluate the neutron beam profile. The NRAD ERS neutron beam is a Category I neutron radiography facility, the highest possible quality level according to the ASTM. Gold foil activation experiments show that the average neutron flux with length-to-diameter ratio (L/D) = 125 is $5.96{\times}10^6n/cm^2/s$ with a $2{\sigma}$ standard error of $2.90{\times}10^5n/cm^2/s$. The neutron beam profile can be considered flat for qualitative neutron radiographic evaluation purposes. However, the neutron beam profile should be taken into account for quantitative evaluation.

Most of Orders of Magnitude estimate are based on historical data. This data is converted to the current price using by the cost index method mainly. This method, however, is rarely utilized or only for one-time use due to the lack of data and the complex escalation calculation method. This paper present a typical process on the conceptual investment cost estimation using by Cost Indexes based on the actual case for the Train Control facility of High-speed rail project. The result is expected to serve as both an easy way for Order of Magnitude estimate and a standard guideline for computerized modeling.

According to the new multi-media appeared as a result of rapid growth of the information and science technique, the school library must be changed to the integration of the teach-study media resource from the existing print media. It means that the school library has to play a role of the study center with a different media from the existing teaching material, teaching instrument, facility and opportunity. The Information education must be conducted in the way of an integrated education course and able to do both information transaction and problem settlement. The education facility to solve this problem is the school library. Therefore, the school library becomes important more and more. It means that the school library is the center of entire study and education material for the teacher and student is focused on it. It is urgent to make the standard of the school library In order to cope with the new education and information environments. And especially it is very important to make a plan about the location and scale of the school library to improve the quality of the children's studying activity. The location of the school library is decided under consideration of the relationship with other room of school house and the proper scale of it is between 2.5units and 7.0units of classroom based on the number of class.

A standard form of six stylized human intrusion scenarios for a near-surface disposal facility (e.g. the planned Korean repository, Gyeongju Phase II) is proposed through re-categorization of totally thirty-one past cases reported in public literature. A reference assessment framework for inadvertent human intrusion is newly developed using GENII Version 2 conforming to the ICRP Publication 60 and thereafter. Calculated dose from the assessment framework is verified by comparing with hand calculation results for simplified model equations independently derived. Results from GENII Version 2 and 1.485 show inevitable differences, which is mainly attributed to the difference in the external dose assessment model. If intake dose coefficients in GENII Version 1.485 are modified, the difference can be reduced but still exist to an extent. Through deterministic and probabilistic sensitivity analysis, most affecting four parameters are derived and uncertainties of the parameters are quantified. It is expected that the reference assessment framework together with representative stylized scenarios can be used to do a human intrusion impact assessment for a specific repository using site-specific information. Especially, the past practice of human intrusion impact assessment using GENII Version 1.485 with or without modification may be replaced with the new assessment framework developed in this study.

The classroom is a learning space where students live mainly in school, and it is the most important space within the entire educational space of the school. Although our educational system has been trying to revise and change the curriculum many times, it still does not provide space for the educational concept of modern society. The impact of the abolished 'school facility standard design' in 1992 is still evident in the design of school facilities at present. Specifically, the uniformity of the educational space, the rigid boundary of the classroom unit, the blockage between the school facility and the outside, and the separation due to the break of the inner and outer spaces. In the future, we need a flexible space that can contain the contents of the future education, and it is necessary to study the composition and type of educational space that can escape uniformity and spatial breakdown. In this paper, we analyze the successful cases of Irvine school facilities and examine the type and composition of classroom space, and it will be a task to find the direction and change of thinking about our educational space.

Common Criteria(CC, ISO/IEC 15408) is an international standard for evaluation of Information Suity Systems(ISS). There need a suitable evidence of estimation of evaluation cost in an evaluation facility under the CC-based evaluation and assurance scheme. In this paper, we propose an evaluation effort model, which is based not only on assurance-level but also on product-type of ISS, by means of real experience of real evaluators, use-ratio concept and the Function Point of security function. The model is based not on a real evaluation environment of evaluation facility, but on CC, public PPs and product specific STs. Our result might be used as a basic model for estimation of evaluation cost and time of ISS in an CC-based evaluation and assurance scheme.
